4.5 / 5

based on 6 reviews

Very informative and works without cell service. Just follow the instructions before you get to the park. Great option since we were before season so the tour buses weren’t running. Worth the money for sure.

Very informative for self guided tours around the parks! We were driving in the reverse direction of the tour but even so the extra information was useful and interesting!
